I found someone selling a set of mounted snowtires with very little wear, I just don't know enough about tire specs to know if they'll fit. The specs are;
Michelin pilot alpin snow tires
225 60 16
Mounted on mid 90's 5 lug gt stang rims
H speed rating

My 2010 gt is sitting on 17s with pirellis, will these fit my application?
If they do will there be a discrepancy with my speedometer due to size difference?

Going from 17 to 16 in the rear, yeah the speedo will be off.
Will they bolt up? I don't know. Go try them on if they are local.
You probably wont like the look of 17's in front and 16's in the back.

A 16" wheel won't fit your front. The brakes are too big, with the bigger rotor on the GT it moves the caliper out too far to put the 16" wheel on.

Damn Thanks for the heads up, ...they were such a good deal

If they WOULD have fit, the tire OD is pretty close to the OE tire size. The other question would be what the wheel offset is although in a 225 it shouldn't be an issue.

I'll say one thing: I'd LOVE to put a 60 series tire on a 16" wheel simply for the love of sidewall.

Plan B;
How about these?

Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25V 235/50R18
18x8 Bolt Pattern: 5-114

I'm pretty sure they're off a infinity g35, I think the bolt pattern is the same, however I dont really know if the tires are a fit.
Also do I need to get new tire pressure sensors or can I switch the ones on my current rims?
